fMSX For Linux

fMSX is a MSX emulator. fMSX is a program that emulates MSX, MSX2, and MSX2+ 8bit home computers. It runs MSX/MSX2/MSX2+ software on many different platforms including Windows, Symbian, MacOS, Unix, MSDOS, AmigaOS, etc. I started developing fMSX in 1993 when there were only two other MSX emulators available, both exclusively for MSDOS. From the very beginning, I developed fMSX as a portable program able to run on many different computers. The initial development, for example, was done on DEC Alpha workstations running Unix. Since then, fMSX has seen quite a lot of updates and been ported to many systems. It is still being developed, although not as actively as before because most features are pretty much complete now.

As I made the source code available for others to see from the very beginning, many MSX emulators derived from the fMSX code have appeared in the past years and still continue to pop up every now and then. My copyright policy is simple: you can use my code for non-profit purposes as long as you give me a proper credit with my name, URL, etc. Using the whole code as it is and calling it a different name is not permitted though, just like any other form of plagiarism. If you wish to use fMSX source code for commercial purposes, you will have to license it from me. Latest fMSX news, information, and source code are always available from http://fms.komkon.org/fMSX/
